As soon as the time hit 12, Glint's first party launched in full swing.
As guests arrived at the venue, they could hear the enticing music playing.
Then stepping into the room, decorated with the focus of a dark chocolate and a milk colour theme plus a few pink pointers, they found the decorations unique.
Because Glint's main colures were that dark chocolate and milk colure, it was also used in the decorations as well as the packaging of their products.
As soon as the guests stepped into the room from the entrance, two well dressed ushers in uniform, welcomed them in and gave a stick of rose flower to each lady before showing them to a table.
This was a gesture the guests found pleasant.
With guests arriving right in time, Zhang Liling did not take long before walking in through the entrance with Fang Bingwen beside her.
Dressed in a milk-coloured suit and pants with dark chocolate buttons on it, and a pair of matching shoes, she let a smile grace her lips as she held unto Fang Bingwen's arms.
As they stepped in, a few eyes turned towards their direction as a flash of curiosity laced with surprise moved across their eyes.
Zhang Liling's choice of colour perfectly matched the theme of Glint's party decors and their product packaging.
What did that mean?
Soon, Zhang Liling shoed them what it meant when she started moving from one table to the other to some of the guests that had arrived.
With a smile plastered on her face, she kept saying to each group, "Thank you for coming to my brand launch. I am honoured by your presence."
This was indeed an unexpected turn of events as one particular thought remained in the minds of her guests.
'So, she is the owner of this brand?'
This was indeed a huge surprise as none of them expected for her to be the owner of the brand.
All this while since they got the invitation, they have been thinking that it was a reputable company or a wealthy popular business man/woman that owned it.
Never on their second thoughts did it come to their minds that she would turn out to be the owner.
What about her father's company? Was she going to leave everything for her step siblings to run? That would be a shame.
Still, it was good she started something for herself instead of engaging in a power struggle. This whole setup had proved that she was going to succeed with her brand.
Look at the way she had all of them thinking that a well-known person owned Glint.
More especially, a good number of them loved her concept for including a handwritten letter alongside the invitation card. She did well there.
Soon, Song Jujing stepped into the small hall dressed in a dark chocolate gown with a milk-coloured feathers surrounding the neckline of her dress, making that part full.
Her choice of colour was a bold one, but being noting far from a celebrity, she knew how to pull difficult colours and styles for her age, off.
She was really not an Editor for a famous magazine for nothing.
As soon as she entered the hall, all her eyes glanced towards her direction as surprise flashed through the eyes of a few guests who were shocked to see her.
'So she could be in town and no one would know?'
'She really came for her daughter's brand launch all the way form Paris given how busy and demanding her job was.'
'A mother supporting her daughter. That is a good one.'
In elegant steps, Song Jujing made her way toward the table at the forefront but before she could get there, a few people had already started to approach her with smiles on their faces and champagne glasses in their hands.
***
It really was not an easy fit to greet her guests. Since most of the people that came to her party was because of her boyfriend's influence, she let him introduce them to her.
Without wasting time as more guests arrived, Glint moved over to the next item on the list.
With the MC climbing the stage all the guests returned to their seats. At the same time, Zhang Renshu arrived with two bodyguards following him.
His presence answered one of the most important questions everyone had in their heads.
By showing up to this launch, it showed that he was supporting his daughter, and that meant that he held no grudge against her.
On seeing his arrival, there was a moment of time relapse but as Zhang Liling had already laid out instructions to everyone working with her before the event, the ushers quickly did their job by respectfully showing him to his seat in the front.
Right at the table Song Jujing was sitting at.
'I just knew she wouldn't miss something like this,' He said to himself as he helped himself to the empty white chair next to her.
Since Zhang Liling came to seem him at the office, he has been thinking about her.
Since that stubborn daughter of his did not give him the chance to ask about her, he could only guess a few things by himself.
These days, the woman doesn't even bother to inform him any time she wanted to make a trip down to the country. How iconic of her.
"Dad, you're here..." Zhang Liling said with a smile that reached her eyes.
She looked pleased to see that the man made it to her event that too, right on time.
Glancing at her mother, she guessed, 'Was it because of her?'
Regardless, she maintained the smile on her face as her father finally realized that she and Fang Bingwen were also sitting at the same table.
Glancing briefly at Fang Bingwen who bowed his head slightly to greet him, he cleared his throat and looked back to his daughter.
"You made the effort to ensure that I came, why wouldn't I be here?"
